Handwriting of name in manifest not clear to me

Post by JOHN08 »

I need help in reading the script of a manifest generated in Naples, Italy. I have tried to post an attachment with the script but I was not successful. The manifest information: Ship: America; port of departure: Naples, Italy; port of arrival: New York, NY; arrival date: 25 Feb. 1910; name of person: Balduino DI MARZO; line 8; pages 43 and 44. The information was viewed using Ancestry.com.
On page 44 in the column: "Whether going to join a relative...his name and complete address" I not sure of the given name and surname. Any help would be appreciated.

Wow! that's a hard one...no wonder why you need help...

To me, the last name of the person at destination looks like Aniello....can't be certain...but that's what it looks like to me.

I think it is Aniello (first name) Monte (surname)
